If you’re busy basking in the chaos of engagement announcements or if you’re about to embark on your wedding planning journey, choosing your venue really should be at the top of your to-do-list. Why? It means you can set the date, start booking suppliers and begin imagining your perfect day.
So, now you’ve made the wedding venue search your number one priority, it’s time to think about the type of venue you would like to find for your special day. If a traditional country house wedding venue just doesn’t seem to take your fancy, don’t fret. A lavish white wedding isn’t for every bride and groom, and there are lots of options available instead.
For the laidback yet style-conscious couple, a more relaxed and informal setting may be up your street. Have you ever considered a pub wedding? You will be spoilt with delicious, hearty food, first-class service and a cosy environment. What’s not to love?!
Pub weddings are becoming more and more popular amongst the sophisticated bride and groom. Gone are the days where you were restricted to saying ‘I Do’ in a particular setting. In fact, weddings are much more flexible than they used to be, offering the freedom to have the day you want. Couples are seeking a more casual and informal venue to host their celebrations.
If you are lucky enough to be getting wed abroad, a pub wedding venue provides a fantastic space for the after party or the second wedding reception. This way, you can celebrate with the friends and family that weren’t able to join you abroad. It really is the best of both worlds!
Although pubs once had the reputation of being rather old-fashioned, Young’s selection of venues are incredibly diverse with some great traditional locations and even modern, fashion-forward pubs that promise an unforgettable celebration.
Young’s specialise in pub wedding venues that are stylish yet affordable, made with the modern bride and groom in mind. They have everything under the sun, from hip and quirky settings to those that are proper, hearty pubs. There are two wedding collectives to choose from; ‘London Pub Weddings‘ – for those who want to tie the knot in the heart of the city, and ‘Your Pub Wedding‘. The latter has been created for couples who want something outside of the iconic London locations.
